More than a thousand migrants, including children, are living in inhumane conditions in abandoned and dilapidated warehouses in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, where temperatures can go down to -20 degrees Celsius in the winter. Migrants are at risk of hypothermia and illness, while humanitarian organisations can only do so much without the government's backing.

Yugoslav tanks and armored vehicles rumbled back to their barracks in Kosovo on Monday, just a day before a NATO deadline for Serbia to reduce its troops in the breakaway province or face airstrikes.
Also on Monday, in Brussels NATO ambassadors were being briefed by NATO military chief General Wesley Clark on his weekend talks in Belgrade.
There he pressed Yugoslav PresidentSlobodan Milosevic for further troop withdrawals from Kosovo, where ethnic Albanians are fighting for independence.
Serb tanks rumbled through the Kosovan capital Pristina on Monday, as Yugoslavia tried to convince the international community it was complying with an agreement brokered with American envoy Richard Holbrooke on October 12.
The tank withdrawals come just a day before a NATO deadline for Serbia to reduce its troops in Kosovo or face the renewed threat of airstrikes.
Initially, three military units returned to their barracks in the towns of Urosevac, Pristina and Kosovska Mitrovica.
Later, a convoy of more than two dozen Yugoslav tanks, trucks and other armored vehicles was seen rolling through the Komorane checkpoint toward Pristina.
Serb police removed the road signs ordering vehicles to halt at the checkpoint, 12 miles west of Pristina, but the policemen manning the small booth at the intersection remained on duty.
As the tanks and trucks rolled through, international monitors checked the vehicles.
The Yugoslav government says the withdrawals show it is complying with the agreement.
At another checkpoint in the Drenica region, Kosovo Liberation Army fighters were busy checking EuropeanObserver vehicles.
The K-L-A continues to guard its area and is scrutinising all vehicles passing into its territory.
The K-L-A has declared that NATO has lost its credibility, saying the North Atlantic organisation has failed not only Kosovo but Europe.

Counting is complicated by the fact that many people, like these in Kisna Reka, go into the villages during the day, but leave again at night.
Hundreds of people have died since Milosevic launched his crackdown in February in the province, part of Serbia, the main Yugoslav republic.
Some 90 percent of Kosovo's 2 million residents are ethnic Albanian, and most favour independence.

French peacekeepers kill and die in clash with SerbsUN peacekeepers and Bosnian Serbs in Sarajevo on Saturday (27/5) fought a fierce battle that left two French soldiers and four Serbs dead. The six died during and just after a battle in which UN troops retook a critical observation post on the Verbanje Bridge, separating Serb-controlled Sarajevo from those parts of the city held by the mainly-Muslim government. One French peacekeeper was killed during the battle and another shot dead immediately afterward, in apparent retaliatory fire. Five French soldiers and four Bosnian Serb soldiers were wounded in the firefight.

US envoy Richard Holbrooke started a new round of talks with Yugoslav PresidentSlobodan Milosevic on Wednesday - after warning that the Kosovo crisis had reached a "decisive moment".
NATO forces are now making final preparations for military strikes against Serb targets - as President Milosevic continues to resist calls for an end to the violence in Kosovo.
As the talks began, international observers were visiting Albanian refugees - just 24 hours after Holbrooke had highlighted their plight.
This is a refugee camp near Komorane, 30 kilometers south of the Kosovan capital Pristina and is currently home to more than three-thousand people.
On Wednesday representatives from the Kosovo Diplomatic Observer Mission visited the camp, to judge conditions for themselves.
The ethnic Albanian refugees living at Komorane have been camped out under trees and living in tents made from plastic sheeting for several weeks.
At the centre of the camp, refugees gather around pipes to collect water from the only source available.
Observers say they witnessed first had the refugees' desperate situation and say they will report what they have seen.
Serb president Slobodan Milosevic's 7-month crackdown on the rebel Kosovo Liberation Army has killed hundreds and driven more than 270,000 civilians from their homes.
International concern over Kosovo increased last week after reports that Serb police massacred dozens of ethnic Albanian civilians. Police deny responsibility.
Ethnic Albanians constitute 90 percent of the 2 million people in Kosovo, a southern province in Serbia, the main republic in Yugoslavia and most favour self-rule.
In preparation for possible air strikes, the NATO alliance will hold a special joint council with Russia on Friday in Brussels, to brief the Russians on its possible actions in the Yugoslav province.
Russia threatened on Tuesday to use its veto in the Security Council to stop NATO airstrikes.

9. Various of a man casting his vote, ballot boxes in the foreground
STORYLINE:
The Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) that is overseeing voting in Kosovo for Serbia''''''''s presidential and parliamentary elections said on Sunday the ballots will be sent back to Serbia for counting.
The OSCE spokesperson Nicola Gaon said the role of the OSCE was to bring the materials to Kosovo, open the polling stations and enable people to vote.
"Tonight when the voting is over we will take the balloting material to two locations in Vranje and Raska where the counting will proceed without OSCE''''''''s involvement," Gaon explained.
He confirmed that 90 polling stations opened in Kosovo with minor delays due to a technical issues.
The OSCE is monitoring voting at 28 polling stations across Kosovo but not overseeing the local elections that some Serb officials want to organise, despite warnings from Pristina that force would be used to prevent them.
Pristina says local elections would create a parallel administration on its territory.
NATO has recently reinforced its quick-reaction battalion in Kosovo, bringing its total strength to about 7,000 troops, because of the tensions caused by the vote.
Serbia, which considers Kosovo the cradle of its statehood and religion, does not recognise Kosovo''''''''s independence.
In addition, Serbs in the northern part of the former province do not recognise the government in Pristina, Kosovo''''''''s capital.
Kosovo authorities, who are primarily ethnic Albanian, have little authority in northern Kosovo.
The election for president, Parliament and local authorities will determine the pace of Serbia''''''''s European Union-demanded economic and social reforms, after being an isolated pariah state under Milosevic in the 1990s for his warmongering policies.
The ballots could also determine whether Serbia continues to reconcile with its neighbours and wartime foes, including the former province of Kosovo which declared independence in 2008.
The two leading contenders in presidential and parliamentary elections are Boris Tadic and his pro-EU Democratic Party, and Milosevic''''''''s former ally Tomislav Nikolic, whose nationalist Serbian Progressive Party has capitalised on EU''''''''s economic troubles, which have dimmed the bloc''''''''s allure for many Serbs.

NATO

The North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO/ˈneɪtoʊ/; French:Organisation du traité de l'Atlantique Nord; OTAN), also called the North Atlantic Alliance, is an intergovernmentalmilitary alliance based on the North Atlantic Treaty which was signed on 4April 1949. The organization constitutes a system of collective defence whereby its member states agree to mutual defense in response to an attack by any external party. NATO's headquarters are located in Haren, Brussels, Belgium, where the Supreme Allied Commander also resides. Belgium is one of the 28 member states across North America and Europe, the newest of which, Albania and Croatia, joined in April 2009. An additional 22countries participate in NATO's Partnership for Peace program, with 15other countries involved in institutionalized dialogue programmes. The combined military spending of all NATO members constitutes over 70 percent of the global total. Members' defense spending is supposed to amount to 2 percent of GDP.

Theatrum Orbis Terrarum

Theatrum Orbis Terrarum (pronounced [tʰɛˈaːtrʊm ˈɔrbɪs tɛˈrːaːrʊm], "Theatre of the World") is considered to be the first true modern atlas. Written by Abraham Ortelius, strongly encouraged by Gillis Hooftman and originally printed on May 20, 1570, in Antwerp, it consisted of a collection of uniform map sheets and sustaining text bound to form a book for which copper printing plates were specifically engraved. The Ortelius atlas is sometimes referred to as the summary of sixteenth-century cartography.

Content

Many of the maps in this atlas maps were based upon sources that no longer exist or are extremely rare. Ortelius append a unique source list (the "Catalogus Auctorum") identifying the names of contemporary cartographers, some of whom would otherwise have remained obscure.

Editions

After the initial publication of Theatrum Orbis Terrarum, Ortelius regularly revised and expanded the atlas, reissuing it in various formats until his death in 1598. From its original seventy maps and eighty-seven bibliographic references in the first edition (1570), the atlas grew through its thirty-one editions to encompass 183 references and 167 maps in 1612.

Khan Academy

Khan Academy is a non-profit educational organization created in 2006 by educator Salman Khan with the aim of providing a free, world-class education for anyone, anywhere. The organization produces short lectures in the form of YouTube videos. In addition to micro lectures, the organization's website features practice exercises and tools for educators. All resources are available for free to anyone around the world. The main language of the website is English, but the content is also available in other languages.

In late 2004, Khan began tutoring his cousin Nadia who needed help with math using Yahoo!'s Doodle notepad.When other relatives and friends sought similar help, he decided that it would be more practical to distribute the tutorials on YouTube. The videos' popularity and the testimonials of appreciative students prompted Khan to quit his job in finance as a hedge fund analyst at Connective Capital Management in 2009, and focus on the tutorials (then released under the moniker "Khan Academy") full-time.

This is a refugee camp near Komorane, 30 kilometers south of the Kosovan capital Pristina and is currently home to more than three-thousand people.
On Wednesday representatives from the Kosovo Diplomatic Observer Mission visited the camp, to judge conditions for themselves.
The ethnic Albanian refugees living at Komorane have been camped out under trees and living in tents made from plastic sheeting for several weeks.
At the centre of the camp, refugees gather around pipes to collect water from the only source available.
Observers say they witnessed first had the refugees' desperate situation and say they will report what they have seen.
Serb president Slobodan Milosevic's 7-month crackdown on the rebel Kosovo Liberation Army has killed hundreds and driven more than 270,000 civilians from their homes.
International concern over Kosovo increased last week after reports that Serb police massacred dozens of ethnic Albanian civilians. Police deny responsibility.
Ethnic Albanians constitute 90 percent of the 2 million people in Kosovo, a southern province in Serbia, the main republic in Yugoslavia and most favour self-rule.
In preparation for possible air strikes, the NATO alliance will hold a special joint council with Russia on Friday in Brussels, to brief the Russians on its possible actions in the Yugoslav province.
Russia threatened on Tuesday to use its veto in the Security Council to stop NATO airstrikes.

KOSOVO: WITHDRAWAL OF SERB FORCES LATEST (V)

KOSOVO: WITHDRAWAL OF SERB FORCES LATEST (V)

KOSOVO: WITHDRAWAL OF SERB FORCES LATEST (V)

Eng/Albanian/Nat
VOICED BY: LOUISE BATES
Yugoslav tanks and armoured vehicles returned to their barracks in Kosovo on Monday, just a day before a NATO deadline for Serbia to reduce its troops in the breakaway province or face airstrikes.
On Monday, in Brussels, NATO ambassadors were being briefed by NATO military chief General Wesley Clark on his weekend talks in Belgrade.
There he pressed Yugoslav PresidentSlobodan Milosevic for troop withdrawals from Kosovo, where ethnic Albanians are fighting for independence.
Despite evidence of a withdrawal however, U-S Navy forces are continuing to carry out military exercises in the Adriatic Sea.
VOICE-OVER:
00:00- Serb tanks rumbled through Pristina on Monday.
00:04 - Yugoslavia is trying to convince NATO allies they're complying with the deadline to withdraw from Kosovo.
00:15 - A convoy of at least 50 army vehicles was seen pulling out of the Komorane area early Monday. The withdrawal comes just one day before NATO has threaten air strikes.
00:21 K-L-A soldiers say they're not convinced.
00:24 Some surveyed bunkers. Others fired rounds into the trees. They said they were checking for land mines.
00:32 - This K-L-A soldier says NATO's lost its credibility.
SOUNDBITE: (Albanian)
"Unfortunately, NATO and the international community are not following the path they set out. They are not using all the measures available to them to stop all these bad things that are happening to the Albanian people." Question: Has NATO lost its credibility? Answer: "Unfortunately, yes. NATO has failed in Kosovo and Europe."
SUPERCAPTION: Shaban Shala, Director of KLA's Ministry of Information
PARAPHRASE SOUNDBITE - NATO is not using its power to stop what is happening to Albanians, he says. NATO has failed Kosovo and Europe.
01:01 -
Aid convoys have been Kosovo's only lifeline. On Monday the United States delivered another load of food and medicine to Pristina. The aid will be doled out to N-G-O's and Albanian refugees.
01:13
SOUNDBITE: (English)
"This aircraft is bringing in a sufficient amount of medical supplies for ten thousand people for the next three months. In addition the rest of the plane is pretty well filled with blankets to help prepare for the winter."
SUPER CAPTION: Hugh Parmer, USAID spokesman
01:26 - Its only a small dent. But it will help some of the 300-thousand Albanians, forced out of their homes after the Serb crackdown in February.

9. Various of a man casting his vote, ballot boxes in the foreground
STORYLINE:
The Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) that is overseeing voting in Kosovo for Serbia''''''''s presidential and parliamentary elections said on Sunday the ballots will be sent back to Serbia for counting.
The OSCE spokesperson Nicola Gaon said the role of the OSCE was to bring the materials to Kosovo, open the polling stations and enable people to vote.
"Tonight when the voting is over we will take the balloting material to two locations in Vranje and Raska where the counting will proceed without OSCE''''''''s involvement," Gaon explained.
He confirmed that 90 polling stations opened in Kosovo with minor delays due to a technical issues.
The OSCE is monitoring voting at 28 polling stations across Kosovo but not overseeing the local elections that some Serb officials want to organise, despite warnings from Pristina that force would be used to prevent them.
Pristina says local elections would create a parallel administration on its territory.
NATO has recently reinforced its quick-reaction battalion in Kosovo, bringing its total strength to about 7,000 troops, because of the tensions caused by the vote.
Serbia, which considers Kosovo the cradle of its statehood and religion, does not recognise Kosovo''''''''s independence.
In addition, Serbs in the northern part of the former province do not recognise the government in Pristina, Kosovo''''''''s capital.
Kosovo authorities, who are primarily ethnic Albanian, have little authority in northern Kosovo.
The election for president, Parliament and local authorities will determine the pace of Serbia''''''''s European Union-demanded economic and social reforms, after being an isolated pariah state under Milosevic in the 1990s for his warmongering policies.
The ballots could also determine whether Serbia continues to reconcile with its neighbours and wartime foes, including the former province of Kosovo which declared independence in 2008.
The two leading contenders in presidential and parliamentary elections are Boris Tadic and his pro-EU Democratic Party, and Milosevic''''''''s former ally Tomislav Nikolic, whose nationalist Serbian Progressive Party has capitalised on EU''''''''s economic troubles, which have dimmed the bloc''''''''s allure for many Serbs.

Croatia - Released Canadian Military Observer

T/I: 10:59:38
In one of the rare interviews given by freed u-n hostages, a newly
released canadian military observer said Sunday (4/6) the most
difficult moments of the soldiers' captivity was that they were
isolated from their loved ones and families - that they couldn't
let their families know they were all right. Speaking at the U.N.
base in Zagreb, U.N. MilitaryObserverCaptain Ryan Lapalm said
the hostages' only link to the outside world was a battery-operated radio which picked up news broadcasts. It was thanks to those radio news reports that they were able to find out how their colleagues were doing.

Migrants stuck in warehouses in Serbia

More than a thousand migrants, including children, are living in inhumane conditions in abandoned and dilapidated warehouses in Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, where temperatures can go down to -20 degrees Celsius in the winter. Migrants are at risk of hypothermia and illness, while humanitarian organisations can only do so much without the government's backing.

KOSOVO: SERB FORCES WITHDRAWAL SITUATION UPDATE

English/Nat
Yugoslav tanks and armored vehicles rumbled back to their barracks in Kosovo on Monday, just a day before a NATO deadline for Serbia to reduce its troops in the breakaway province or face airstrikes.
Also on Monday, in Brussels NATO ambassadors were being briefed by NATO military chief General Wesley Clark on his weekend talks in Belgrade.
There he pressed Yugoslav PresidentSlobodan Milosevic for further troop withdrawals from Kosovo, where ethnic Albanians are fighting for independence.
Serb tanks rumbled through the Kosovan capital Pristina on Monday, as Yugoslavia tried to convince the international community it was complying with an agreement brokered with American envoy Richard Holbrooke on October 12.
The tank withdrawals come just a day before a NATO deadline for Serbia to reduce its troops in Kosovo or face the renewed threat of airstrikes.
Initially, three military units returned to their barracks in the towns of Urosevac, Pristina and Kosovska Mitrovica.
Later, a convoy of more than two dozen Yugoslav tanks, trucks and other armored vehicles was seen rolling through the Komorane checkpoint toward Pristina.
Serb police removed the road signs ordering vehicles to halt at the checkpoint, 12 miles west of Pristina, but the policemen manning the small booth at the intersection remained on duty.
As the tanks and trucks rolled through, international monitors checked the vehicles.
The Yugoslav government says the withdrawals show it is complying with the agreement.
At another checkpoint in the Drenica region, Kosovo Liberation Army fighters were busy checking EuropeanObserver vehicles.
The K-L-A continues to guard its area and is scrutinising all vehicles passing into its territory.
The K-L-A has declared that NATO has lost its credibility, saying the North Atlantic organisation has failed not only Kosovo but Europe.
SOUNDBITE: (Albanian)
"Unfortunately, NATO and the international community are not following the path they set out. They are not using all the measures available to them to stop all these bad things that are happening to the Albanian people." Question: Has NATO lost its credibility? Answer: "Unfortunately, yes. NATO has failed in Kosovo and Europe."
SUPERCAPTION: Shaban Shala, Director of KLA's Ministry of InformationCentral to the international effort is the return of ethnic Albanian civilians to their villages and homes.
So far, despite Milosevic's pledge to cooperate, only a trickle have returned.
Counting is complicated by the fact that many people, like these in Kisna Reka, go into the villages during the day, but leave again at night.
Hundreds of people have died since Milosevic launched his crackdown in February in the province, part of Serbia, the main Yugoslav republic.
Some 90 percent of Kosovo's 2 million residents are ethnic Albanian, and most favour independence.

The K-L-A has declared that NATO has lost its credibility, saying the North Atlantic organisation has failed not only Kosovo but Europe.
SOUNDBITE: (Albanian)
"Unfortunately, NATO and the international community are not following the path they set out. They are not using all the measures available to them to stop all these bad things that are happening to the Albanian people." Question: Has NATO lost its credibility? Answer: "Unfortunately, yes. NATO has failed in Kosovo and Europe."
SUPERCAPTION: Shaban Shala, Director of KLA's Ministry of InformationCentral to the international effort is the return of ethnic Albanian civilians to their villages and homes.
So far, despite Milosevic's pledge to cooperate, only a trickle have returned.
Counting is complicated by the fact that many people, like these in Kisna Reka, go into the villages during the day, but leave again at night.
Hundreds of people have died since Milosevic launched his crackdown in February in the province, part of Serbia, the main Yugoslav republic.
Some 90 percent of Kosovo's 2 million residents are ethnic Albanian, and most favour independence.

LOCATION: BOSNIA
DATE: 27 MAY 1995DURATION: 1.34
French peacekeepers kill and die in clash with SerbsUN peacekeepers and Bosnian Serbs in Sarajevo on Saturday (27/5) fought a fierce battle that left two French soldiers and four Serbs dead. The six died during and just after a battle in which UN troops retook a critical observation post on the Verbanje Bridge, separating Serb-controlled Sarajevo from those parts of the city held by the mainly-Muslim government. One French peacekeeper was killed during the battle and another shot dead immediately afterward, in apparent retaliatory fire. Five French soldiers and four Bosnian Serb soldiers were wounded in the firefight. Later a French peacekeeper held hostage was wounded when a Bosnian government sniper apparently mistook him for a Serb soldier. UN spokesman Lt ColGary Coward said a dozen Bosnian Serb soldiers had taken the post Friday night after dressing like French peacekeepers. FollowingNATO airstrikes against ammunition bunkers in the Serb stronghold of Pale on Thursday and Friday, Bosnian Serbs took UN military observers hostage and threatened to kill one for every further NATO bomb launched.

US envoy Richard Holbrooke started a new round of talks with Yugoslav PresidentSlobodan Milosevic on Wednesday - after warning that the Kosovo crisis had reached a "decisive moment".
NATO forces are now making final preparations for military strikes against Serb targets - as President Milosevic continues to resist calls for an end to the violence in Kosovo.
As the talks began, international observers were visiting Albanian refugees - just 24 hours after Holbrooke had highlighted their plight.
This is a refugee camp near Komorane, 30 kilometers south of the Kosovan capital Pristina and is currently home to more than three-thousand people.
On Wednesday representatives from the Kosovo Diplomatic Observer Mission visited the camp, to judge conditions for themselves.
The ethnic Albanian refugees living at Komorane have been camped out under trees and living in tents made from plastic sheeting for several weeks.
At the centre of the camp, refugees gather around pipes to collect water from the only source available.
Observers say they witnessed first had the refugees' desperate situation and say they will report what they have seen.
Serb president Slobodan Milosevic's 7-month crackdown on the rebel Kosovo Liberation Army has killed hundreds and driven more than 270,000 civilians from their homes.
International concern over Kosovo increased last week after reports that Serb police massacred dozens of ethnic Albanian civilians. Police deny responsibility.
Ethnic Albanians constitute 90 percent of the 2 million people in Kosovo, a southern province in Serbia, the main republic in Yugoslavia and most favour self-rule.
In preparation for possible air strikes, the NATO alliance will hold a special joint council with Russia on Friday in Brussels, to brief the Russians on its possible actions in the Yugoslav province.
Russia threatened on Tuesday to use its veto in the Security Council to stop NATO airstrikes.

OSCE says ballots will be sent back to Serbia for counting as part of a deal

(6 May 2012) 1. Wide exterior of the polling station
2. People queuing out the voting room
3. The Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) worker and other voting officials handing ballots to a voter who goes to the voting booth
4. Election official checking voter''''''''s identity card
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Nikola Gaon, OSCE spokesperson:
"I can confirm that all 90 polling stations at 28 ballot centres have been opened this morning as of 8:15. As you can notice there was a small delay in opening all of them, some 20 and that was due to technical reasons and those have now been resolved. "
6. Voter''''''''s finger sprayed and ballot handed out to him
7. Close of identity card being picked up by an official
8. SOUNDBITE (English) Nikola Gaon, OSCE spokesperson:
"The OSCE was to bring the materials to Kosovo, to open the polling stations, to enable people to vote and tonight when the voting is over we will take the balloting material to two locations in Vranje and Raska where the counting will proceed without OSCE''''''''s involvement."
9. Various of a man casting his vote, ballot boxes in the foreground
STORYLINE:
The Organisation for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) that is overseeing voting in Kosovo for Serbia''''''''s presidential and parliamentary elections said on Sunday the ballots will be sent back to Serbia for counting.
The OSCE spokesperson Nicola Gaon said the role of the OSCE was to bring the materials to Kosovo, open the polling stations and enable people to vote.
"Tonight when the voting is over we will take the balloting material to two locations in Vranje and Raska where the counting will proceed without OSCE''''''''s involvement," Gaon explained.
He confirmed that 90 polling stations opened in Kosovo with minor delays due to a technical issues.
The OSCE is monitoring voting at 28 polling stations across Kosovo but not overseeing the local elections that some Serb officials want to organise, despite warnings from Pristina that force would be used to prevent them.
Pristina says local elections would create a parallel administration on its territory.
NATO has recently reinforced its quick-reaction battalion in Kosovo, bringing its total strength to about 7,000 troops, because of the tensions caused by the vote.
Serbia, which considers Kosovo the cradle of its statehood and religion, does not recognise Kosovo''''''''s independence.
In addition, Serbs in the northern part of the former province do not recognise the government in Pristina, Kosovo''''''''s capital.
Kosovo authorities, who are primarily ethnic Albanian, have little authority in northern Kosovo.
The election for president, Parliament and local authorities will determine the pace of Serbia''''''''s European Union-demanded economic and social reforms, after being an isolated pariah state under Milosevic in the 1990s for his warmongering policies.
The ballots could also determine whether Serbia continues to reconcile with its neighbours and wartime foes, including the former province of Kosovo which declared independence in 2008.
The two leading contenders in presidential and parliamentary elections are Boris Tadic and his pro-EU Democratic Party, and Milosevic''''''''s former ally Tomislav Nikolic, whose nationalist Serbian Progressive Party has capitalised on EU''''''''s economic troubles, which have dimmed the bloc''''''''s allure for many Serbs.

T/I: 10:59:38
In one of the rare interviews given by freed u-n hostages, a newly
released canadian military observer said Sunday (4/6) the most
difficult moments of the soldiers' captivity was that they were
isolated from their loved ones and families - that they couldn't
let their families know they were all right. Speaking at the U.N.
base in Zagreb, U.N. MilitaryObserverCaptain Ryan Lapalm said
the hostages' only link to the outside world was a battery-operated radio which picked up news broadcasts. It was thanks to those radio news reports that they were able to find out how their colleagues were doing.

In one of the rare interviews given by freed u-n hostages, a newly
released canadian military observer said Sunday (4/6) the most
difficult moments of the soldiers' captivity was that they were
isolated from their loved ones and families - that they couldn't
let their families know they were all right. Speaking at the U.N.
base in Zagreb, U.N. MilitaryObserverCaptain Ryan Lapalm said
the hostages' only link to the outside world was a battery-operated radio which picked up news broadcasts. It was thanks to those radio news reports that they were able to find out how their colleagues were doing.

entire ordeal was letting our families know we were alright...as
alright as you can be in that situation...we were totally
incommunicado with everyone"

0:29 up sot ryan lapalm "there was always a tension in the air
that more radical elements...a displeased population might do
something that authorities might not be able to prohibit....there
are always wilder elements in every society"

Travel to Serbia – See It With New Eyes
THE SECRET DESTINATION THAT IS SERBIA
Nestled and land-locked between Romania, Croatia and Bulgaria, it’s as though these surrounding countries have outshone the jewels of this land, keeping Serbia hidden from the rest of the world.
As travelling filmmakers we’re always on the lookout for undiscovered destinations and travel stories which are becoming increasingly rare and difficult to find, so our recent trip to Serbia sparked great excitement as it was just the type of place we had been looking for – Truly unique, authentic and incredibly beautiful! We know it’s not the top destination on your list, but we’re going to paint you a picture of what we discovered, through our videography, photography and words, that will undoubtedly change your mind and rearrange that list of yours.
If you’re wondering if Serbia is for you, here’s the type of person who would absolutely love it:
#1 – FOR THOSE WHO LOVEWILDPLACES
If for no other reason, come to Serbia for its wild and untouched nature. The landscapes look like watercolour paintings, with pastel shades and hues touching everything the eye can see, from the ground beneath your feet to the very tops of the sky. You can’t help but be immersed in the mystical beauty of it all.
#2 – FOR THOSE WHO ARE FOODIES
Serbia is the best kept foodie secret, where cultures collide! Eating in Serbia is equivalent to a culinary feast in Turkey, Hungary and the Mediterranean all wrapped into one. With every dish being hearty, creamy and fatty, you’ll not only have a piece of Serbia close to your heart by the end of it, but a great portion on your hips too. But the good news is that it’s 110% worth it and we can guarantee that your taste-buds will love it so much, that they’ll long for these unique flavours for years to come.
#3 – FOR THOSE WHO LOVE TO PARTY
Belgrade, the capital of Serbia, which boasts some of Europe’s most exuberant nightlife, reflects its golden city lights into the Danube river which hugs its shores - This city has an energy and vibrancy that’s contagious and addictive! During the day we would explore its Bohemian neighbourhoods, covered in colourful wild flowers and dotted with street cafes and at night, every night, we would party! Many say Belgrade is the next Ibiza, with super clubs called “splavs”, on barges that float alongside the river’s edge, filled with gorgeous, young people having the time of their lives on hot summer nights!
#4 – FOR THOSE WHO ARE HISTORIANS AND CULTURALISTS AT HEART
Belgrade’s beauty stems from it’s astounding architecture and gritty look and feel, adding a very special charm to the city, as it displays evidence of its rich history from generations before us. Pristine museums, castles and churches are any historians dream, telling tales of many wars and cultural shifts. But if you’re not a fan of buildings, every Serbian is like a little history book. They are so passionate about their country that if you show interest and give them half the chance, they’ll tell you all about their country’s entire story, inviting you into their world for an insiders’ look at their cultures and traditions.
Serbia’s turbulent past has caused the tourism industry to bypass it, indirectly creating a country so raw and authentic that it inspired us beyond words, leaving us feeling in awe of all we had encountered during our time here. But unfortunately, like all things in life, this will not last forever and we urge you to see it with your own eyes, before the tour groups get their hands on it. So do yourself a favour and go somewhere unexpected on your next trip, like Serbia – You’ll be surprised by what you find!

15 years after hosting Europe's ugliest civil war since the Holocaust, VICE takes a road trip across the remnants of Old Yugoslavia.
Watch more VICE documentaries here: http://bit.ly/VICE-Documentaries
While most of us were still hung up on grunge, the republics of the former Yugoslavia spent the early 90s hung up on seceding into their own countries and mass-murdering people over infinitesimal ethnic differences. And the mid 90s. And the late 90s. To commemorate 12 years without a major attempted genocide, we decided to rent a Yugo and take a road trip through the Balkans to see what's going on and try to wrap our thinkers around what was up with all that ethnic cleansin'.
Our first stop: A nostalgic amusement park in northern Serbia that recreates Marshall Tito's Socialist Federal Republic of Yugoslavia with startling accuracy and grimness.

MY FILM MAKING KIT ► https://kit.com/davidsbeenhere
In this episode, David takes us around Serbia's second largest city to discover the top things to see and do in Novi Sad, Serbia. Novi Sad is the capital city of the northern Vojvodina Province - an area home to several nationalities including Hungarians, Croatians, Slovakians, and more...First stop, David meets up with local guide Milos in the main square of the city in Liberty Square center. Milos explains the origins of Novi Sad: The city was founded in the 17th century and now is the second largest city in Serbia.
The Name of MaryCatholic Church is situated in the heart of the city, in the center of Liberty Square. It'sNeo Gothic architecture is quite striking, and if you happen to get lost you could always find your way back to Liberty Square by using the church as a landmark.
Surrounding the church are several 19th century buildings built in Hungarian style. Next stop is the pedestrian-friendly boulevard, Zmaj Jovina Street. Lined with shops and sidewalk cafes, it is the very place for a coffee or light lunch.
Milos and David head on their way to the 17th century Petrovaradin Fortress on the Danube River. This is the second largest fortress in Europe. They first pass through Danavska Street (Danube Street), the oldest street in the city. Once they arrive at the base of Petrovaradin Fortress they make their way up the 200 steps.
From the top of fortress you'll get excellent views of the Danube River and the city of Novi Sad. Petrovaradin Fortress also features a gourmet restaurant and is where the annual EXITMusic Festival takes place each summer. It is one of the largest and most popular music festivals in Europe.
The clock tower in the fortress has become an icon of sorts for the city. It has jokingly been referred to as the "drunk tower" because it is slow in the summer and fast in the winter. Another interesting feature about the clock tower is that unlike other clocks, the small hand counts the minutes and the big hand counts the hours. Make time to walk around the fortress - there are a handful of art galleries and shops to browse, plus you'll want to take in all the incredible views.
David's last stop on his tour of Novi Sad is the Museum of Vojvodina on Dunavska Street to learn about the history of the region from the Neolithic era until modern-day Novi Sad. Two of David's favorite exhibits were the intact golden Roman helmets and the 19th century traditional Serbian costume collection.

In this episode, David takes us around Serbia's second largest city to discover the top things to see and do in Novi Sad, Serbia. Novi Sad is the capital city of the northern Vojvodina Province - an area home to several nationalities including Hungarians, Croatians, Slovakians, and more...First stop, David meets up with local guide Milos in the main square of the city in Liberty Square center. Milos explains the origins of Novi Sad: The city was founded in the 17th century and now is the second largest city in Serbia.
The Name of MaryCatholic Church is situated in the heart of the city, in the center of Liberty Square. It'sNeo Gothic architecture is quite striking, and if you happen to get lost you could always find your way back to Liberty Square by using the church as a landmark.
Surrounding the church are several 19th century buildings built in Hungarian style. Next stop is the pedestrian-friendly boulevard, Zmaj Jovina Street. Lined with shops and sidewalk cafes, it is the very place for a coffee or light lunch.
Milos and David head on their way to the 17th century Petrovaradin Fortress on the Danube River. This is the second largest fortress in Europe. They first pass through Danavska Street (Danube Street), the oldest street in the city. Once they arrive at the base of Petrovaradin Fortress they make their way up the 200 steps.
From the top of fortress you'll get excellent views of the Danube River and the city of Novi Sad. Petrovaradin Fortress also features a gourmet restaurant and is where the annual EXITMusic Festival takes place each summer. It is one of the largest and most popular music festivals in Europe.
The clock tower in the fortress has become an icon of sorts for the city. It has jokingly been referred to as the "drunk tower" because it is slow in the summer and fast in the winter.

David’s Been Here is traveling through southern Serbia in search of the top destinations and best attractions. In this travel episode, David brings us the top things to see and do in Nis.
Serbia’s third largest city, Nis is one of the most historically significant destinations in the entire country with loads of sites, attractions and monuments to show for it. Nis is famous for being the birthplace of the Roman EmperorConstantine the Great, the man responsible for converting the empire to Christianity. The city was known in those days as Naissus.
First stop in historic Nis is straight to the city center where David meets up with his tour guide to explore the Nis Fortress. The fortress was built during Turkish rule (1386 – 1878) as was regarded as one of the most beautiful buildings in the Balkans. The Nis Fortress was used as an armory, hammam (bath), and prison. Much of the original building is still standing. It is a free attraction where people are welcome to stroll the paths and check out the 2,000-year-old Roman tombstones within.
Nis didn’t escape the horrors of WWII, as evidenced by the presence of a German concentration camp. Through the years the camp housed 30,000 people, of which 12,000 were executed.
Continuing along, David and his tour guide go see Skull Tower, built by the Ottomans. The skulls are those of Serbs killed by Ottomans during the Battle of Čegar during the First Serbian Revolution in 1809. They then head to the Archaeological Hall of Nis to check out some Roman artifacts from ancient Naissus.
With a fascinating history and pedestrian-friendly streets, travelers stopping over in Nis will have no shortage of things to do!

Novi Pazar (Serbian Cyrillic: Нови Пазар, lit. "New Bazaar") is a city located in the Raška District of western Serbia. As of the 2011 census, the urban area has 66,527 inhabitants, while the city administrative area has 100,410 inhabitants.
Novi Pazar is the cultural center of the Bosniaks in Serbia and the historical region of Sandžak.A multicultural area of Muslims and Orthodox Christians, many monuments of both religions, like the Altun-Alem Mosque and the Church of St. ApostlesPeter and Paul, are found in the region.
During the 14th century under the old Serbian fortress of Stari Ras, an important market-place named Trgovište started to develop. By the middle of the 15th century, in the time of the final Ottoman Empire conquest of Old Serbia, another market-place was developing some 11 km to the east. The older place became known as Staro Trgovište (Old Trgovište, Turkish: Eski Pazar) and the younger as Novo Trgovište (New Trgovište, Turkish: Yeni Pazar). The latter developed into the modern city of Novi Pazar.
The name of Novi Pazar (meaning "new marketplace") was thus derived from the Serbian name Novo Trgovište, via the Turkish name Yeni Pazar, which is itself derived from bazaar (from Persianبازار (bāzār), meaning "market"; from Middle Persian بهاچار (bahā-chār), meaning "place of prices"). It is still known as Yeni Pazar in modern-day Turkey.
Lying on crossroads between numerous old and new states, Novi Pazar has always been a strong trade center. Along with the trade, the city developed manufacturing tradition. During the 20th century, it became a center of textile industry.
Paradoxically, during the turbulent 1990s and, Novi Pazar prospered, even during the UN sanctions, boosted by the strong private initiative in textile industry. Jeans of Novi Pazar, first of forged trademarks, and later on its own labels, became famous throughout the region. However, during the relative economic prosperity in Serbia of the 2000s, the Novi Pazar economy collapsed, with demise of large textile combines in mismanaged privatization, and incoming competition from the import.
The old Serbian Orthodox monastery of Sopoćani, the foundation of St. King Uroš I, built in the second half of the 13th century and located west of Novi Pazar, is a World Heritage Site since 1979 accompanying with Stari Ras (Old Ras), a medieval capital of the Serbian great župan Stefan Nemanja.
The city also houses an old church from the 9th-centuryChurch of St. Peter. On a hilltop overlooking Novi Pazar is the 12th century monastery of Đurđevi stupovi, long left in ruin, but recently restored and with a monastic community using it, with plate glass to keep out the weather and preserve the fine frescos. The main mosque of the city, the Altun-Alem Mosque, is the largest in this region of the Balkans and dates from 16th century. There are various other historic Ottoman buildings, such as the 17th-century Amir-agin Han, a 15th-centuryHammam, and the 15th-century Turkish fortress (all gone but the walls, the site of which is now a walled park in the city centre).
Novi Pazar is home to two universities, the International University of Novi Pazar and the State University of Novi Pazar.
The city's football club FK Novi Pazar was founded in 1928, under the name "FK Sandžak", which later changed to "FK Deževa". The club has played under its current name since 1962, when Deževa and another local football club, FK Ras, unified under this name. The club was a SFRJ amateur champion, and a member of the Yugoslav Second League. FK Novi Pazar qualified for a promotional play-off twice, but lost both times (to FK Sutjeska Nikšić in 1994, and to FK Sloboda Užice in 1995). FK Novi Pazar finally promoted to Serbian SuperLiga in 2011-12 season. FK Novi Pazar is the oldest second-league team in Serbia. Football is still extremely popular sport in Novi Pazar and city stadium is always full.
Volleyball clubs in the city are OK Novi Pazar (first league) and OK Koteks.
Handball club is in second league and used to have name "Ras" but it was changed in RK Novi Pazar in 2004.
Famous athletes from the city include Turkish basketball national team player Mirsad Jahović Türkcan, former football player of BesiktasSead Halilagić, handball-player Mirsad Terzić (who represents Bosnia and Herzegovina) and young football players Adem Ljajić, Ediz Bahtiyaroğlu, and alpinist Basar Čarovac who climbed all seven continents' highest peaks.

In this episode we take you to the capital of Serbia, Belgrade! David’s first stop is Kalemagdan Fortress which consist of the old citadel and Kalemegdan Park on the confluence of the Danube River and the Sava River. The meeting of the Sava river into the Danube is one of the most beautiful natural lookouts in the capital.
The location of the fortress is right next to old Belgrade of Stari Grad. Knez Mihailova Street is the main pedestrian street in the city center.
Next up we visit Ada Lake, a river island that has been turned into a peninsula. During the summer months, Belgradian’s come to relax at the beach at Ada.
Now we head to the Church of Saint Sava during Easter service. The Church of Saint Sava is a Serbian Orthodox church located on the Vracar plateau in Belgrade. When the church is completed it will be the second largest Orthodox church in the world after the Holy Trinity Cathedral of Tbilisi.
The next location we visit is Tasmajdan Park, a public park in the surrounding urban neighborhood of central Belgrade. The park was bombed by NATO in 1999. There are two churches, St. Mark’s Church “Serbian Orthodox” and a Russian Orthodox Church.
Now we head out to try Burek a Balkan staple food! Burek is a dough filled with either cheese, spinach, or meat. David tries both a cheese and a spinach and cheese.
Republic Square is considered to be the heart of Belgrade! After we head to Skadarlija, the bohemain area of Belgrade. This is a great restaurant street and the perfect place to try Rakia!
Bucko, is a famous pizza place in Belgrade. Our friend Ivan from Belgrade VIP thinks this is a must try and we do too!
Now off to Zemun, it was once a separate town from Belgrade. It’s located directly across the river Sava. It’s a beautiful place to relax and enjoy its romantic architecture!
So that was David’s list of top things to see and do in Belgrade. Definitely a must visit capital when you visit the Balkans.
Thank you for watching Things to See and Do in Belgrade!

Serbian PresidentBoris Tadic strongly defended Serbia's position on Kosovo at an address to the IISS. He declared Serbia would not recognise Kosovo and that attempts by the EU to make them do so would fail. However, he reaffirmed his belief in the importance of a 'fair and equitable' settlement and the need to take into consideration the realities of both Serbs and Albanians in Kosovo.
He also spoke of his hope that Serbia and the wider Balkan region would be integrated into the EU. A continent-wide union was the best way to make Europe economically competitive against emerging powers such as China and India, he said.

20th anniversary of the Bosnian war

11/04/12 It is 20 years since the beginning of the war that unleashed a wave of violence against Bosnians and Croats at the hands of Serbian PresidentSlobodan Miloševic and his allies, the Bosnian Serbs.
During the three and half years of conflict sparked by the break up of the Yugoslav republic, countless UN Security Council resolutions did little to halt the indiscriminate shelling of cities and towns, ethnic cleansing and genocide. The international community proved powerless as journalists uncovered evidence of systematic mass rape and the existence of concentration and death camps.
Memories of that conflict have been evoked in recent months not only because of this anniversary, but because of fears that Syria is following the same pattern. But after the eyes of the world have moved...

The international community proved powerless as journalists uncovered evidence of systematic mass rape and the existence of concentration and death camps.
Memories of that conflict have been evoked in recent months not only because of this anniversary, but because of fears that Syria is following the same pattern. But after the eyes of the world have moved on, what has happened to the people of Bosnia?
Ed Vulliamy writer for the Guardian and Observer will be joining Frontline Club founder Vaughan Smith in conversation to look back at the impact of the war both then and on people's lives today.
